The Microtech UTX-70 OTF Automatic Merlot Red D/E Satin Serrated (147-5MR) is a compact, precision-engineered automatic knife that blends refined aesthetics with versatile cutting performance. As part of the UTX-70 lineup—approximately 70% the size of the Ultratech—this model delivers exceptional portability while maintaining Microtech’s signature quality and reliability.
This model features a 2.4" double-edge (D/E) dagger blade with a clean satin finish and partial serrations, offering a balance of style and function. The plain edge sections provide smooth slicing, while the serrated portion enhances cutting power on tough materials like rope, cord, and webbing. The symmetrical dagger design also delivers excellent piercing capability and balanced performance.
Constructed from premium M390 blade steel, the blade ensures superior edge retention, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability—hallmarks of Microtech’s high-end materials and manufacturing standards. The double-action OTF mechanism allows for fast, smooth deployment and retraction, engineered for consistent performance even in a compact platform.
